RFA at the end of it
current cap hit of $3.5M
so we can assume he'll at least make that at the next one
But factor in looming UFA years we're looking at a possible 5x5 contract which would be disaster imo.
saw a tweet last night that went something like...
Canucks could've had a line of
Tkachuk-Nylander-Boeser

Until Juloevi gets a couple years under his belt in the NHL, can't judge whether it made better sense to take Tkachuk. What is Juolevi turns into a stud top-2 dman and powerplay quarterback?
But I agree with Nylander. Or Ehlers. Always pick high skill when drafting in the top 10. JV never displayed high amounts of skill even when he was in junior. Canucks thought he could be that power forward who could notch up 60 points. Maybe it will still happen, but it doesn't look like he has the drive to do that ATM.

Remember. It wasn't long ago that we were complaining why the fuck did we draft horvat and not nishkunin. Look at where we are today. Way to early to judge a young player. Hell laine looks like a better pick than Matthews so far.

From 2 days ago, but goes to show how bush the league can be.
So it was goalie interference when Burrows did kinda the same thing against Dallas.

Has 1A in 5G so far in the A
In hindsight, he probably should have gone back to junior last year. Hopefully Green can get through to him and set him straight.

What do you guys think Dim Jim will offer to Horvat in terms of a new contract? Bo Ho is playing in a contract year now.
I would think that Dim Jim would want to sign Bo Ho to a long term deal now that he's our best forward based on his play so far.
Contract length and term for Bo Ho?

I know there's some people who wants to see him signed to a bridge deal in case his production falls off.
But Bo doesn't strike me as a guy who will hit and run if he gets a long contract and imo, he's already Captain material.
I'd like to see him signed for more than 5 years, buy off some UFA years. something between $4M-$5.5M cap hit.

6 years at 5mill a year would be perfect but I have a feeling dim jim will sign him 6 years for 5.5-6mill a year.

I'm surprised no one's done this against the Canucks yet

Contract length and term for Bo Ho? | Id say something similar to what Galchenyuk's contract looked like

Overall, if you look at his junior career, he didn't set the league on fire at all. 157 points in 183 games. Not too bad, but top draft picks typically destroy junior league goalies.

Hindsight is a bitch, especially for Vancouver.
Ehlers scored 49 goals in his draft year, 104 pts total. And put up 28 pts in 16 playoff games.
Nylander played for Modo ffs. Modo has yet to give us a non-foundational player lol.
Virtanen might become a good player one day but he'll never be as good as those two will be.

The year after Virtanen scored 45 goals, he dealt with a (dislocated?) shoulder injury and had little time to heal thru before his 3rd junior season.
His shot was clearly affected by the shoulder injury which showed his goals and point totals take a dip.

Wow, nasal voice or what? Then the salamander in the throat. Didn't get to hear the star mangled banner, but our national anthem was less than stellar.

Just caught the anthem being sung on 1040 while I was at the Italian Cultural Centre. I guess the coverage on the tube doesn't do that too often during away games.
Anyway...............................

Stecher seems pretty confident out there. Tapped his stick for the puck a few times at the point during that 6 on 4, too bad his shots couldn't find the net.
